Go to UNC-Charlotte. Their computer science program isn't perhaps the most prestigiuous but it's still pretty good. The university itself has a solid national reputation. Charlotte, believe it or not, is a good fun city of about 500,000 people, is a major banking city, and the largest city in NC. They have a small but vivid nightlife scene and the weather should be pleasant year-round (warm-hot but not unbearably so in the summers and a bit of snow in the winter). They have 2 major professional teams (Carolina Panthers - NFL, and the Carolina Bobcats - NBA) and most big concert tours that visit the Southeast US stop at Charlotte. Jobwise, Charlotte has plenty of computer science jobs and there's even more (a lot more) just a couple hours' drive away at RTP (Research Triangle Park, Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill). And versus some of the other schools you're looking at, it's a lot less traveling to back to London when you want to go back and visit. Hope this helps.

Without a doubt, SUNY New Paltz. I go there now and I could not be happier.
